Description:
Styx: Shards of Darkness invites you to do your favorite thing for a unique goblin - theft, but even such a funny little thing as stealing a magic scepter turns into confusing a story with a global conspiracy, dark elves, cruel gnomes and genocide of a whole race of magical creatures. Styx - a charismatic goblin who owes his appearance to the game Of Orcs and Men, has already received the second game from the studio Cyanide. Using the successful developments of the first part and the graphic power of Unreal Engine 4, the authors are trying to raise the project to a new level, inviting players to go on a dangerous adventure in search of treasures, where revenge and betrayal go hand in hand.

A very good game, despite the restrained reviews of critics, there is humor (after a gamer the Styx can send the player three letters calmly, calling him a krivoruk idiot ), there is stealth (a kind of Dishonored 2 in miniature (on behalf of a goblin)), a billion of all possible ways of passing, on surprise, not a bad plot, the graphon is beautiful (gloomy, juicy, graphonistically).
